Double notes when recording w. sustain?
 

Hello all -

I don't know if this has been up before, but I couldn't find anything, so here goes:

When I record piano with sustain pedal via MIDI, ProTools "doubles" my notes?
It records the actual thing I play + the same in very short notes.
This makes the playback "die" or after only a split second and not the full duration of the chord.

I have experienced this on both the big HD system but also on my small Mbox2 mini.

Am I doing anything wrong? I want to record both the sustain action and the notes I play.
(it takes time to draw the automation afterwards)


I have ProTools LE and Korg/Nord MIDI devices.

Thanks in advance.

Same thing happens to me. I don't even use sustain most of the time (it's bad practice to record non-piano midis with a sustain pedal) and I still get the duplicated midi notes...

Are you sure it's not the controller? I never have this issue with the sustain pedal on my controller.

Is this possibly happening during a punch-in?

I was having the same problem until I realized my
controller had multiple zones or groups active.
- When I reset my controller to a single zone, it
corrected the problem.

hope this helps someone...
